Jasonc Posted February 14, 2011 Posted February 14, 2011 Awesome cels, jvmacross. This year, I'm looking to be able to buy some more Macross cels if they are available. It will also depend on if I can make a trip out to Japan this year. Quote
Renato Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 Some of my Macross cels.... :o :o All of your cels are amazing, but how on EARTH did you ever get hold of that Hikaru/Misa cel?? That is beautiful. Quote
UN Spacy Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 I am jelly....and those DYRL cels...OMG. Quote

That is beautiful. Thanks...I have acquired them from various conventions, ebay, fellow collectors, and yahoo japan... The Hikaru/Misa is from this furoku: It is hard to tell from the book pic, but I believe it is sort of a mixed-media type graphic (based on looking at the actual cover which I happen to own)...with the main characters being cel-drawn and the veil, tiarra, necklace being layered onto it....it is a nice effect Edited May 10, 2020 by jvmacross Quote
Renato Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 Yeah, I have that book somewhere and I recognized the image, that's why it was so shocking to see the cel, it's so iconic to me. Congratulations on the find. Quote

That is an awesome find! Its called a hanken cel when its not used in animation but rather used in promotion or licensing Quote
baronv Posted February 16, 2011 Author Posted February 16, 2011 You got some crazy cels there jvmacross, very ncie stuff. One day I'd like to find the VF-22 cel. Only recent cel purchase of the last few months: Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted February 16, 2011 Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) @ jvmacross: Great collection and thanks for sharing your Misa. That is something truly amazing. It might be a real hanken or it might be a very well done fan made version but it is hard to tell just from one picture. One strong indication this might be a well made fan hanken is the lack of the pearls. There really is no reason for the pearls to be missing for a hanken especially, since if it was a second layer or third cel layer, it would block the hair strands and the shadowing around the neckline would be mismatched. Typically for hankens there is no reason to add a second cel layer if the details can and added to the first. Second layers serve specific purposes, showing details that are either animated (not applicable for hankens) or display extremely unique details. Then these details usually appear above (not beneath) the primary cel layer. Best case scenario this is an original hanken, but if so, you are missing an in-between layer for the pearls, and the separate layer(s) for the tiara and the veil. The tracelines still look amazing solid which is not unusual considering the quality for hankens is higher than production cels. One questions can you let us know how many layers appear? Nevertheless it is a good find, but authenticating it might be a good thing to do. Also you might want to re-do your matting b/c it blocks parts of the dress, hair, and shadowing. Oh and just to add something to Totoro242 comments, hankens are indeed used for promotional publications such as posters. However hankens also are used as magazine cover art, poster splash pages, cd/dvd cover art, and insert cover art. Edited March 23, 2011 by Fortress_Maximus Quote
Mokman Posted February 17, 2011 Posted February 17, 2011 Glorious stuff jvmacross. Thanks for sharing. Quote

Jasonc Posted May 16, 2011 Posted May 16, 2011 Very nice stuff. Love Macross cels. It was a joy to look at these pics, man. Quote
Totoro242 Posted May 17, 2011 Posted May 17, 2011 Cool, I used to have a cel from that VF19 sequence from Macross 7 Dynamite: Quote

jvmacross Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) A few more Macross cels.... Â Â Â Edited May 10, 2020 by jvmacross Quote
Marzan Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 wow jvmacross. I'm just in total awe of your collection! You got some amazing stuff. I've started a very modest collection myself. Been a bit wary of being scammed so I'm very cautious until I learn more about collection cels. Quote
DarrinG Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 I've posted some Macross and Mospeada cels over in the For Sale area in case anyone is interested: http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?showtopic=35135 Quote
Jasonc Posted July 5, 2011 Posted July 5, 2011 Picked up only 2 cels this year at AX, and both not Macross...BUT...very closely related, and pretty nice for the price to say the least. Enjoy. Quote

Hey, what a coincidence. I just bought from an online trader an Orguss cel with the man Kei Katsuragi too. And for a good price too. Nice background on the 2nd one. Quote

Jasonc Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 Nice cels! Was anyone selling Macross cels? If so, what what available? There were some. There was a few of Minmay, ranging from $200-$1200. There was also quite a few of Myun from Mac Plus. One of them I would've loved to have gotten, but it was a bit out of my price range ($500). There was one of Hikaru in DYRL helmet, one of the VF-1D, one of Guld Goa Bowman. There were also quite a few of them of Sharon Apple. Quote

akim Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) Some others cels... I show some Macross Dyrl cels before i'll try to say them goodbye: Hikaru: From a lot of 8 interesting pieces (where we can see some steps before the cel): Edited July 8, 2011 by akim Quote
Jasonc Posted July 9, 2011 Posted July 9, 2011 $1200 for a Minmay cel? Was that autographed by Mikimoto or something? It was a large DYRL cel of Minmay during her concert with original background. These cels are very expensive, and based on the condition, was very, very clean. No line deteriation. I have one, rather, my wife has one, that was around $400. There are those certain characters that if you can find a cel, are a pretty penny. Another one like that is Noriko Takaya from Gunbuster. Her cels in good poses and position are way up there. Quote

A concert scene with original background and very clean. Ok then, Then the price is understandable. Gunbuster cels in general are not cheap. Recently got a nice Kazumi one but I've actually never seen a Noriko one on sale. Quote
buffalostyle Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 Love the cels, jvmacross! I have found Macross cels to be very hard to come by...I, myself, only have two cels from the Macross-verse but, your pics are quite an inspiration...continuing to come to this thread just may get me to get back into cels...what a great yet (potentially) expensive hobby...

Keoki420 Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Im thinking of starting to collect Macross cels, can someone point me in the direction to where I could find them? And what do I look for in a cel? Sorry for sounding like a newbie, thanks for the help. Quote

nightmareB4macross Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 Nice collection rusted180, I especially like the three part sequence of Kakizaky's demise handed down by Miria. If I collected cells, I think I would only collect the death scenes or fallen heros. Quote
